They came from former Colts coach Tony Dungy, Pro Bowl receiver Reggie Wayne, veteran defensive lineman Cory Redding and Adam Vinatieri, the best clutch kicker in NFL history. The consensus: Luck is no ordinary rookie.

Luck, the No. 1 overall draft pick, disagrees.

"It's always very nice when two guys of such high caliber (Dungy and Vinatieri) say those things, but I feel like a scrub rookie every day, so far," he said.

Scrub rookie?

Luck, the $22.1 million man, took most of the snaps at practice this week, a trend that's likely to continue throughout camp and the regular season and something few rookies, a rarity in the NFL.

Most of those who have watched Luck this week have been impressed with the way he has handled the pressure.

Dungy praised Luck's decisiveness on the opening day of camp, saying Luck looked like a third- or fourth-year player. Safety Tom Zbikowski made it clear Luck certainly doesn't act like a rookie.

Wayne applauded Luck's ability to throw a "strong" ball, and almost universally, players and coaches believe Luck's intelligence is off the charts.

"Andrew's going to be good, he's going to be really good," Wayne said. "He's really smart, he knows what's going on around him, he understands the concept, he understands the terminology, he understands it all."

Luck appreciates the comments, he's just trying to be realistic.

Like most rookies, his early performances have been up and down.

Reporters who charted Luck's throws through the first six practices pointed out he was 122 of 162 with seven TDs in team drills.

Luck is worried about another number — five interceptions.

So when asked to grade his performance in Week 1, the top pick in April's draft responded bluntly: "Too many interceptions."

To correct the mistakes, the Stanford grad has been working overtime to review practice tapes and read defenses better. He has gotten a full immersion into how to play against the complicated 3-4 defense. He has spent countless hours memorizing the playbook and working with receivers on timing.

Eagles: Garrett Reid, the oldest son of Philadelphia Eagles coach Andy Reid, was found dead Sunday in his room at the club's training camp at Lehigh University. He was 29.

The police chief at Lehigh, Edward Shupp, said a 911 call was made at 7:20 a.m., and Garrett Reid was dead when a policeman arrived at the campus dormitory.
